A mountain of Lego found in a suburban drug raid is so large police are going to need a truck to seize it.
The 1,130 boxes worth more than $200,000 were discovered on Tuesday alongside a meth lab and boxes of gemstones at a Botanic Ridge house on Melbourne’s suburban fringe.
Police said there were so many of the plastic building blocks that a truck will be needed to transport them.
He appeared at Melbourne magistrates court on Wednesday and was remanded to reappear in February.
“It’s not unusual for police to seize a range of different items from a property as part of an investigation like this, however this is more often drugs or cash,” Det Insp Anthony Vella said.
“This is the first time our detectives have seized a Lego collection – let alone one so large that it requires specific transportation to remove it.”
